Does anyone understand the mentality?

[Henry Whalley]

I don't get the thought process of retired military who become insurgents or fellow travelers. If the constitutional order is overthrown things such as pensions and SSA benefits would surely disappear. The net would be pulled out from under everyone who depends on such income. Everyone would suffer--- not only the proverbial 'suckers and losers' of the military.

Do the insurgent scoundrels, morons, and haters think one step ahead? Where would all the money go? Ask Putin and his fellow plutocrats.

My experience is that

those who embrace socialism and communism in this country have never even experienced what it is actually like living under those regimes.

They are sold a bill of goods based on the fluff while the reality remains hidden.

If you look at what is happening in university’s,that is where the radicalization begins,California has a few that have been operating sense the 60s and their whole format is based behind the marxists values.

They are literally a breeding ground for little commie numb minds who are easily programmed.

There is a misconception about the military,it is portrayed as everybody that joins is a gung ho warrior that drinks napalm for breakfast.

But it is not,it is a mirror of society and there are just as many wakos in the military as there is in society,it seems to have actually gotten worse in the last 20 years as it entered the realm of PC correctness and catering to the mamby pambies,the military does not train you to be an individual,it trains you to act as a unit without question under strict discipline.

People are trying to change the military into an individual identity where everybody has feelings,there is no room for that because people die.

When I was in the regular military 90% of the people dieing was because of somebody else screwing around,on missions it is simple you have a target and if you screw up you and everybody else dies.

You see military ships now,with rust running down the sides,ships running into each other in harbors,it is because it has become a military of pandering grab asses.

Look at Jack Ruby,he was a sniper in the army,a devout communist and he is probably the record holder for a devout communist in this country for following through on his actions,by killing a president that represented democracy.

Granted Kennedy should have never pissed off the mob and Ruby was a ends to a means,but his time in the military really had nothing to do with anything.

Look at the recent cases of the killings at the military base in Texas,they were all service members.

The problem now is terminology,they want to purge the military of radicals,what exactly defines a radical?

The problem with loose definitions is you can actually apply that to anybody how you see fit.

You see it in the political realm,everybody that does not fit into a political profile is called a radical.

So we know the NG was vetted before going into Washington DC and putting up a armed border around the capital building.

What exactly were they vetted for and what questions were asked in the process,so according to the left all Trump supporters are radical right wingers,and you see the public parroting them right on que.

So what happens when one party of the government removes all military personnel based strictly on their political preferences.

So right now the military goes on a stand down to remove all radicals,or anybody else that fits a category not yet described.

Why does it need to go into stand-down mode when there are some serious world changing things happening when it comes to China and the ME?

If I was a conspiracy theorist,I would say that the military is being used by the democrats for political advancement,but before they can take that step they have to purge any opposition from the ranks.

We hold military leaders in high regard but make no mistake,they are also representative of the population and there are good generals and there are bad generals.

When you classify radicals,the two groups that really apply are the two that are strictly anti government.

They are Antifa and the far right.

But you are also classifying patriot groups as radicals,patriot groups are not radical in that sense,they train and prep strictly on the bases of if this country was invaded,or the government used the military to take over line in a coup situation.

They are not a threat to anybody as long as you do not try and invade our shores or use the military to seize power in this country.

If you really think about it,if any of that were to happen,the ones that you call radicals today will be the ones that will be saving your ass.

So some in power will see them as a threat,because they are a deterrent and will call them radicals and enemies of the state.

When people start labeling others enemies of the state,look for motive on both sides.

Notice how as much as the word is repeated in the press,nobody has actually defined what an enemy of the state is.

The reason it is left open for interpretation is because it opens the door to declare anybody is an enemy of the state for any reason,it could be simply because you did not vote for them.

That is dangerous and it is happening.

In China it is clearly defined,anybody that opposes the government,is considered an enemy of the state.

All of these “radical” groups that they push into the spotlight and tell you they are your enemies while they act like they are millions strong capable of taking over the country,is bunk and a scare tactic used to justify what is coming next.

They do not even represent a tiny Minuit part of the population.

The scary part is out of all the radical groups,the ones that are actually running around burning cities and disrupting peaceful protests so their voice is not heard in the Democratic process,has been Antifa.

Trump tried to get them declared a domestic terrorist group,they certainly fit the bill and have done billions in damage while terrorizing entire cities,but the democrats have refused to allow them to be labeled as such.

But the call is to label right wing groups, domestic terrorist groups.

I have to seriously ask you guys,why is a radical part of the democrat party protecting and giving a pass to Antifa,while calling anybody on the right,far right radicals that need to be labeled domestic terrorists and rounded up.

What Biden is doing with all of these EOs is not democracy,he is telling 100 million Americans that they no longer have a say in the process,as he is making decisions that effect their life dramatically today.

Now they are calling to have the NG to be placed in every American city under the guise of corona virus distribution,when there are thousands of drug stores and other businesses that are able to cover a larger more diverse part of the population faster.

While in congress they are seeking to expel or silence anybody that opposes them,that is not democracy in action,that is a Democratic socialist regime taking over in real time with a hand picked military in the background.

Yes,sorry for the mixup,Ruby was just finishing what he was supposed to do on the day of the shooting.

That was so hilarious Moaf! Gonna save that one. As a rule I don't participate in long phone text messages. Stop the finger-work and call at a point!

Too long posts don't always engender understanding -- instead mocking and derision. One only gets so much life-time, here: use it wisely... Make a special meal, drink extra water, back-up computer files while watching a good film, read a bit. Call a friend/ family member, exercise, etc.

AND THINK SPRING!

What I don't understand is how many times Trump has lied in office [[thousands of times)... and his supporters, rather than getting indignant about how often he would lie, they just dismissed them. Even the religious right seemed to ignore them... unbecoming of church leaders.

Here is an article about it by Forbes business magazine... not exactly what I would call MSM...

I think a lot of that could be attributed to an attraction to spectacle and drama, in the bread and circuses sense. And I'm sure you already know how the "big lie" worked.

... Even the religious right seemed to ignore them... unbecoming of church leaders....

That seems their tacit admission that they are CINOs.

What do the insurgents think is going to happen to their welfare checks, military pensions, social security income, etc., after the coup? Do they expect to receive federal benefits after they murder the federal workforce? Don't they know that the goose who laid the golden egg died looking up her crotch?

[Jimaz]

What do the insurgents think ...?

Apparently they didn't. Or maybe they overthought it in a conspiratorial sense.

Thinking ahead is clearly not their strong point. Same reason they all recorded and sent videos of themselves saying stuff like "Look ma, I'm here committing violent treason in the Capitol!"

You could ask Grandpa smurf .

He has his own collection of lies.

That was only a taste,if I actually posted them all I would have to ask admin for extra server space.

O wait,let me guess,if it is Trump it is a lie,if it is Biden,it is just a variation of the truth.
